Abstract (en)

[origin: WO02082904A2] A method for treating an ocular disorder characterized by the defect or absence of a normal gene in the ocular cells of a human or animal subject involves administering to the subject by subretinal injection an effective amount of a recombinant adeno-associated virus carrying a nucleic acid sequence encoding the normal gene under the control of a promoter sequence which expresses the product of the gene in the ocular cells. The ocular cells are preferably retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells, and the gene is preferably an RPE-specific gene, e.g., <i>RPE65</i>. The promoter is one that can express the gene product in the RPE cells. Compositions for subretinal administration are useful in this method.

[origin: WO02082904A2] The claimed invention is drawn to a method for treating an ocular disease disorder in a human or animal subject characterized by the defect or absence or a normal gene in the ocular cells.
